Thank you, Steve. I was very pleased with the strobes once I had them set up.

Thank you, Andy.

I used two Elinchrom D-lite 400Ws strobes in soft boxes as per the diagram.
Used a 100L at f/13, 1/160, ISO100.

Thank you, Mark. I cropped a small amount from the top and left to remove where the background was showing. I did debate cloning it out, but felt that it felt more balanced with a small crop.

Very nice comp. IMHO, perhaps, toning down the brightness would bring out more detail and texture.
